Title: Procede et agencement de signalisation dynamique
Inventor: GAUFFIN LARS
IPC: H04Q11/04
Filed: 1997-03-25
Granted: 2003-07-08
Abstract: La présente invention se rapporte à un procédé et à un agencement pour une signalisation dynamique dans un réseau tel qu'un réseau à Mode Transfert Synchrone Dynamique (DTM). La largeur de bande du réseau est divisée en cycles qui, à leur tour, sont divisés en tranches de commande en vue de commander la signalisation, et en tranches de données en vue de transférer des données. De préférence, chaque noeud ou certains noeuds possèdent un contrôleur qui commande l'accès aux tranches. Conformément à l'invention, on convertit les tranches de données en tranches de commande, appelées tranches de commande dynamiques, ou on convertit les tranches de commande en tranches de données afin de modifier la capacité de signalisation d'un noeud. Les tranches de commande dynamiques peuvent être utilisées pour une signalisation point à point, multidestinataire ou à diffusion.

Title: Refrigerated dough packaging system
Inventor: PERRY MICHAEL R
IPC: B65D41/00
Filed: 1996-06-03
Granted: 2006-08-15
Abstract: The invention is a packaging system for refrigerated leavened compositions. The packaging system is easily opened by the end consumer and yet is capable of sustaining a desired environment within the package during the storage life of the composition. The invention includes a method for determining package seal strength for a refrigerated leavened composition. The system provides an environment within the package such that the composition attains a desired specific volume upon baking or cooking. The method includes the process of determining the specific volume required for the refrigerated leavened composition after baking, determining internal equilibrium pressure required to attain the specific volume after baking, determining the package dimension subject to the internal equilibrium pressure, and defining the pressure holding capacity required to maintain this pressure during the storage life of the refrigerated composition. The pressure holding capacity is defined by the package dimension subject to the internal equilibrium pressure, which depends on the particular package geometry selected.

Title: Error correction of system transfer function by use of input compensation
Inventor: FARWELL WILLIAM D
IPC: H04L25/03
Filed: 1998-09-03
Granted: 2002-11-12
Abstract: A technique to modify the input data to any system so as  to cancel  errors  in the  transfer  function of  that system.  The system error response to each possible input amplitude transition is determined.  A compensating input sequence is calculated which compensates for this error. The error-correcting sequence is stored in memory for each possible  transition.    These  pattern  sequences  exactly cancel errors in the response to each of the possible, individual sample-to-sample transitions.  For each of any series of input data sample transitions, the appropriate correction sequence is recalled from memory.  The composite corrected input is the sum of Y correction sequences from Y preceding sample transitions.

Abstract: A control system controls a hybrid vehicle hav- ing an engine for rotating a drive axle, an electric motor for assisting the engine in rotating the drive axle with electric energy and converting kinetic energy of the drive axle into electric energy, and an electric energy storage unit for supplying electric energy to the electric motor and storing electric energy output by the electric mo- tor. The control system has a deceleration demand sensor for detecting a deceleration demand for the hybrid vehicle, a braking sensor for detecting whether the hybrid vehicle is braked or not, and a decelerating regenerative control unit for causing the electric motor to regenerate electric energy when the deceleration demand sensor detects the de- celeration demand. The decelerating regenerative control unit increases an amount of electric energy regenerated by the electric motor, by a greater quantity when the hybrid vehicle is braked as detected by the braking sensor than when the hybrid vehicle is not braked as detected by the braking sensor, while the deceleration demand sensor is de- tecting the deceleration demand.

Abstract: A light emitting diode (LED) retrofit lamp with locking swivel mount that mounts into a threaded screw-in electrical socket of a traffic signal.  The LED lamp includes a socket housing, a printed circuit board and a plurality of light emitting diodes. The socket housing has a lower end terminating in a threaded base for insertion into a threaded screw-in electrical socket. The printed circuit board is rotatably mounted to the socket housing. The plurality of light emitting diodes is mounted on the printed circuit in such a manner that they form a symbol image, such as an arrow, a pedestrian walking, a hand, a letter or even words. The printed circuit board is rotatable relative to the socket housing for rotation of the symbol image formed by the light emitting diodes to a desired rotational orientation relative to the socket housing. Therefore, once the threaded base is fully inserted into the threaded screw-in electrical socket of a traffic signal, the printed circuit board can be rotated relative to the socket housing so that the symbol image is properly oriented.
